I've just discovered Shirataki noodles and can't wait to pick a bunch of these up.
Are there any other amazing Asian foods I should try and incorporate into my diet? What are some of your favourites for weight loss?
- green tea
- miso soup
- seaweed salad
- shirataki noodles
any more I can add to this list?

My personal favorite is edamame! Sushi is tops though
On this note, there are no particular foods for weight loss. Just keep your macronutrients balanced (which I agree means focusing on nutrient dense foods) and stay within your calorie limits. Then, you can have anything you want within those llimits. Liiiike... tempura ice cream :P0 -
I love me some salmon onigiri with a side of soy eggs or tamagoyaki. Pretty much anything you'd find in a bento is glorious to me.
Onigiri
Soy eggs
Tamagoyaki
I'd love to learn to make bao. ... Oh the possibilities!

^omg I just died and went to Japanese heaven ♡♡0

My ideal Japanese foods are those that can be packed adorably into a little box. Because I have a problem.
But seriously, how awesome would it be to make something like this for the kid(s)?
Or this? (because of course my kids are going to loooooove Link)
Something like this for the hushband?
And maybe even making a little lunch for yourself, just for the food porn aspect of it?
If I'm already packing the lunches, why shouldn't they be delightful, too?0 -
Tofu. But not for the reasons you think...0

Bao is easy. Have you ever visit Just Hungry? The site makes Japanese food easy. However Asian food that helps you lose weight, not to sure about. Oolong tea is suppose to be good too. Good luck ^_^0

If you can get your hands on them don't forget about all the amazing fruits and vegetables from Asia (western as well as eastern!). Bok choy, bamboo, bitter melon, rambutan, jackfruit, dragon fruit (my personal favorite), burdock root, that yellow one that looks like an octopus (I don't know a name other than buddha's hand). I love getting different types of produce from other places and experimenting with them. And since I've been trying to up my veggies, it's been fun learning about different types.0

I'll have to check it out! I live in the middle of Montana, so a lot of traditional ingredients simply aren't available to me unless I wanted to order them online (and I don't). I've lost weight eating the above foods I quoted, with the exception of bao, but I also had ice cream on a regular basis. They all help!0 -

RivenV, I would hold and cherish the Link one for forever. ..until it started smelling, at least. Or maybe I could eat it slowly and cherish it in memory lol0
